Upgrade/standby status video screens
Was in MSP last week on my normal flight and it looks like they've started using the video screens behind the gate counter to show upgrade and standby status. Looked like real information, though of course that's impossible to tell since I'd already cleared.
If this is the beginning of a system-wide rollout, it'd be much appreciated in my opinion!

Terminal F in PHL has been outfitted with AA style FIDS/GIDS, however I have not seen standby/upgrade lists on them yet. It will be easy enough to enable that when needed. Will be interesting to see if they switch to that format at the A gates, all of which have monitors already, and retiring the LED displays throughout B and C.
CLT would require similar upgrades through B and C gates. (have not been through CLT E in a while)

Flew out of CLT B and E last week, same peg board displays as usual. The peg board displays in Concourses B and C can however display specific information about each flight, I have seen messages stating "Meals Available for Purchase", "First Class Full", etc...
Concourse D in CLT has tv screens at each gate, but because they are common use, they will likely never get an AA GIDS.
